To Assess the Correlation of High-resolution Specimen PET-CT Imaging, Using the XEOS AURA 10 PET-CT, With the Histopathology Results and Long-term Outcome of Patients Undergoing Resective Cancer Surgery.
Belgium850 participantsStarted 2025-11-19
Plain-language summary
This registry study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and clinical impact of specimen PET-CT imaging by analyzing the correlation between specimen PET-CT images, intraoperative interpretations, and histopathological findings. Additionally, it assesses how these imaging insights influence clinical decision-making and long-term patient outcomes. Through this comprehensive analysis in a real-world setting, the study seeks to generate valuable insights that can enhance specimen evaluation processes and ultimately improve patient care.

Inclusion Criteria :
All patients that were scheduled for resective surgery and for whom successful high-resolution PET-CT imaging was performed on their resected specimens using the AURA 10 PET-CT. Successful imaging means that the image contains at least a portion of the primary tumor, the radiotracer injection was correctly executed and there were no technical issues that lead to an uninterpretable PET-CT image. Or all patients that are scheduled for resective surgery and for whom high-resolution PET-CT imaging will be performed on their resected specimens using the AURA 10 PET-CT.
Patients willing to provide informed consent for use of their relevant medical records. For retrospectively included patients with no further Long-Term Follow-Up (LTFU) data collection, a notification will be sent.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Under the age of 18 years at the time of resective surgery.
* Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
